GF: Gasparilla closed? How are the new food options?

I understand that Gasparilla is now closed. Just wondering how the beach bar is working out? Is this the only place to get CS? Mug refills? Long waits? Is there any covered or in door seating? The menu seems very limited from what I have read. Are there Mickey waffles available for breakfast. My DD is going to be very disappointed if there are no Mickey waffles. We may have to make a resort change which I really don't want to do. We do use the resort CS in the mornings, sometimes for afternoon snack, and later in the evening. Any update would be appreciated.
